Categories

How about automatically adding categories for Zone, Beast Speak, Vendor, and Skill Trainer? I don't think there's a downside, just saves editors a few seconds. --Extractum11 (talk) 22:04, 18 January 2016 (CST)

So, there are two errors I notices when applying the infobox to pages.

• When the vendor tag is applied it creates a small white space, a gap between the border and the labels, on the right side of the box
• When beastspeech is the only category applied it takes up several lines of space

I am not sure why the beastspeech problem is happening, it is a litteral copy/paste of the skilltrainer function's lines and it works just fine. The only thing diffrent is that it has 'beastspeech' instead of 'skilltrainer' and that it is applied/considered first(atleast I'm fairly certain the wikimedia/html is read top-to-bottom) with skilltrainer directly after it. I pasted the infobox code above, for it to be seen easily. If anyone can comment on how to fix the problems it would be appreciated. Note: I'm no expert in wikimedia, and am learning by reading the wikimedia help pages and the source of other pages made on the wiki. So if the problem is obvious sorry!
